近日，中国工程院院士贲德荣膺2025年度国家最高科学技术奖。学习贲老的先进事迹，其做好“第一件事”的经历和教诲，尤其值得刚刚告别军校大门、走进基层部队营门的新排长深思细悟。 “到工作单位后，第一件事情很重要，第一件事情做好了，领导才敢放心地把第二件事情交给你。”贲老至今记得大学毕业时老师的谆谆教导。1963年，贲德从哈工大毕业，被分配到国防部第十研究院第十四研究所。工作后的“第一件事”，是参与研制功率谱密度分析仪中的一个关键部件——振荡器，期限只有一个月。没有现成经验，他硬是凭着坚韧的毅力，啃下200多页俄文资料；设计初稿虽提前完成，但他敏锐察觉到其中瑕疵，毅然推倒重来。正是在做好“第一件事”中展现出的严苛标准与敬业态度，为他叩开了参与研制当时世界上最前沿的相控阵雷达任务的大门，铺就了日后为我国雷达事业立下不朽功勋的基石。新排长普遍学历高、见识广、思想活，初到部队，往往被寄予厚望、赋予重任。然而，个别同志总觉得自己一身才华，只想“大展身手”，却不愿做“地平线”以下的工作；或因经验不足，放大畏难情绪，最终应付了事。殊不知，九层之台，起于累土。把“第一件事”做好，就是在为自己的信任值、能力值存入一笔宝贵的“原始资本”；敷衍了事、应付交差，无异于透支未来发展的无限可能。信任的积累，从来没有捷径，就藏在你对待每项任务一丝不苟的态度里，体现在“事事有回音、件件有着落”的闭环落实中。 “天下无现成之人才，亦无生知之卓识，大抵皆由勉强磨炼而出耳。”新排长的成长成才是有规律可循的。陈云同志在《增强新党员新干部的党性》一文中对使用年轻干部提出要求，“到下层锻炼。对他们使用的基本原则是，多走逆风，少走顺风，必要时要分配他们不愿干的工作，以磨练其意志”。部队工作是一项实践性很强的工作，没有一番“寒彻骨”的磨砺，不当几回“热锅上的蚂蚁”，不认真对待“第一件事”的托付，就难以获得成长的资本、难以练硬腾飞的翅膀。当然，做好“第一件事”的深意，不能简单理解为完成首次任务本身，而是蕴含着从一开始就全力以赴的敬业态度、干就干好的坚定决心，以及争创一流的标准要求，反映的是一种难能可贵的初心。从清华校园一路追到导弹发射架下，从扎根基层到破土成长，爱军精武标兵乐焰辉说：“基层经历让我从‘嫩肩膀’变成了‘铁肩膀’，让我在接地气中有了打胜仗的底气。”从努力做好“第一件事”起步，到做好“第二件事”“第三件事”，以至做好“每一件事”，是良好态度、严苛标准的体现，更是对赤诚初心的无悔坚守、对强军使命的忠实践行。建功火热军营，新排长要有“不打无准备之仗”的稳健务实，主动拜官兵为师，虚心向营连主官学统筹谋划，向老排长学带兵之道，向班长骨干学管理方法，在脚踏实地中强基固本；也应葆有“初生牛犊不怕虎”的锐气和“不破楼兰终不还”的决心，勇于迈出第一步，“敢于在呛水中学会游泳”，把困难挫折当作垫脚石，用失败助推能力升级。把每一项任务当成“第一件事”来重视，把每一次实践当成“第一次”来对待，新排长定能加速完成从高学历向高能力、由理论强向实践强的锻造，在强军兴军的伟大实践中开拓事业、彰显价值、淬火成钢。

Summary

Machine summary

A political education column in PLA official media uses Chinese Academy of Engineering academician Ben De's 2025 National Supreme Science and Technology Award as a vehicle to instruct newly commissioned platoon leaders on professional attitude, citing his 1963 work at the Ministry of National Defense's 14th Research Institute and invoking model soldier Le Yanhui alongside a Chen Yun quotation on tempering junior cadres at lower levels. This is standard political work content directed at the lieutenant cohort entering grassroots units; its value is as a record of how the institution frames competence-building and loyalty to the most junior officer grade, not as evidence of a new policy line. The repeated emphasis on 闭环落实 (closed-loop implementation, meaning every task tracked to completion) and on subordinating individual ambition to assigned work documents the persistent institutional concern that academy-educated platoon leaders arrive overconfident and underperforming at the unit level.
